"This Road" - by Ginny Owens

A million miles away from anything familiar
a thousand places I would rather be
so I choke back the tears and try to find the bright side
though I find it hard to see beyond my suffering
in my heart I know Your plan is so much bigger
but this small part is all that I can see
and I believe You haven't left me here to wander
still I can't help but ponder where You're leading me

(chorus)
and I ask why this road
why this way
and this load
tell me how far must I go
till I see
till I know
why this road

A million miles away from anything familiar
what was it like to be so far from home?
though You came in love
the world misunderstood You
there must have been some days when You felt so alone
but You endured, cause there was joy before You
joy that came because You sacrificed
Since you gave Yourself just to spend forever with me
surely I can trust You'll lead me through my darkest times
when I ask why....(chorus)

From here I can not see
why You'd choose this path for me
but I don't have to understand to believe
that You know why

You know why this road
why this way
and this load
You know how far I must go
till I see
till I know
why this road

Day 6 of 9

I woke up this morning (well, this afternoon to be precise), and the trees and ground were coated in white, sparkly stuff. For the most part it was just depressing, but another part of me was like, "Ooo...it's perty." The only time that I can possibly like snow is the first snow of the year, when I have not been outside since it started and I'm looking at it from the warmth of my house. As soon as I step outside, though, all appreciation is gone. I hate snow. (I apologize to those of you who read my blog last year... This post is probably bringing back old memories of me complaining about cold weather last year. I guess I'm too stinkin' predictable.)

Oh yeah, it's also Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving! It's kinda crazy... I was in some serious denial of the fact that it's late November. But the combination of snow and Thanksgiving (November 25!!!) has reminded me of harsh reality. Not that I don't like Thanksgiving. I'm actually somewhat ambivalent toward it. It is SO important to be thankful to God, but not just on one day out of the year. Actually, the fact that we get 9 days off of school makes me like Thanksgiving. Ok...I'm no longer ambivalent.

What was I thinking? Green bean casserole...I love Thanksgiving! Anywho. My dog looks like she's dead right now. Don't worry - she's breathing. On that note, I'd better get some work done and let you fine folks get back to whatever else you need to do. Thanks again for tuning in. Later.

Thanksgiving break!

Home again, home again...

Today I fell in love with my mom's green bean casserole all over again. It's the best thing ever. If I had to limit my diet to a few chosen foods for the rest of my life, green bean casserole would definitely make the cut. It's so deceptive though, because I'm like, "yeah I'm eating green beans," ignoring the fact that everything else in the recipe is not so healthy. Oh well, I guess that's why we only have it on Thanksgiving and Christmas.

So I get home today and my mom immediately starts grilling me about getting everything ready for Greece. It's like, "HI LIBBY - you're home early! Now, how much money do you want to exchange into Euros before you leave for Greece? Where are you going to get the Euros? Do you need to buy a certain kind of phone card?..." The list goes on, and on, and on. My mom is so cool though, because she is super organized and thinks of EVERYTHING ahead of time. It is such a gift. I can make fun of her for it, but in actuality I'd like to be more like my mom in that regard.

This week should be very interesting. I hope to find a balance between the mountains of homework that await me in my room and the overwhelming task of packing for an entire semester in Athens, Greece. 9 days doesn't seem so long anymore. :) But it will be good.

I am really starting to get excited about being in Greece for a semester, but not because I think it's going to be super fun, exotic, and exciting. I know that God is sending me to Athens, and I am excited to see Him at work. When I am weak, He is strong. And I can't wait to see His strength, provision, and faithfulness demonstrated in a very personal and powerful way. It's almost counterintuitive to desire to be vulnerable and "out of my comfort zone" in order to see God glorified in my weakness. But the Messiah coming to earth as a baby, living a humble life, and suffering an incredibly painful death was counterintuitive. Giving of oneself is counterintuitive. But all those things are good, so the problem lies in our intuition...

Well "dudes," enjoy your BREAK!!! Thanks for tuning in once again. Over and out.

November #2

Looky there, I am actually posting 2 days in a row (after taking a couple months off)! Right now Five Iron Frenzy's "Upbeats and Beatdowns" album is playing in my room, and that album is always a good time.

I finished most of my work for the rest of the week, so I decided to take the night off. So far I've done some packing for break (so that I can pack for Greece next week), listened to 2 (going on 3) FIF albums, and read through some of my old blog posts. It's weird to read stuff that I wrote a year ago. In some ways I feel like I've changed a lot, but in so many ways I haven't changed. Freaky-weird!!

So here I am, Libby the Dorkinator. Hmm, what else? Oh yeah, when I was packing up summerish clothes to bring home for packing, I found this one shirt that's kinda like a girls' basketball jersey. It's reversible and VERY cool. I'm way excited about this find, hence the reason that I'm wearing it now. My arms are a little cold, but I feel like I'm an African American. That must be b/c it's a basketball jersey, so subconsciously I feel good at basketball...haven't quite figured it out yet. The truth be told, I stink at basketball. Reality is harsh. ANYWHO...

GCC people and all you other college students, enjoy Thanksgiving break! Don't drop firewood on your big toe, don't let anybody slip anything into your drink (ahem, Kristin), and make sure to eat all your vegetables. ¡Los voces en mi cabeza me dijeron hacerlo! Adios.

Time flies when you're havin' fun!

So here I am again, procrastinating. That seems to be a theme with blogging. Anywho...

This semester has been really amazing, yet radically different than the previous four. In preparing to study abroad next semester, there has been plenty of junk to do. It seems like the list never ends. It gets more and more exciting though, as the trip approaches. I will really miss my family and my friends here, not to mention Jason. But I know deep down that studying abroad is what I need to do, and I am stoked to see what God is going to do while I am in Athens. My prayer right now is that God will provide another Christian from College Year in Athens (the program that I am going with) for fellowship. So if you think of it, please join me in praying for this provision.

Hmm... What else? I am leaving for Belize, Central America, soon after finals are over. It'll be nice to spend a few weeks with my family before taking off for Greece (for over four months). Spending time together is Belize is literally being together ALL day long. It's really fun though, and it always proves to be a great bonding experience for my family. Plus, insane sun rays are involved...and who could pass up being tan as opposed to this freaky shade of blueish-gray! Oh, the benefits of being African American in the winter...

Well, I had better get back to studying for my test tomorrow. I hope to post somewhat regularly next semester while I am in Greece, so keep an eye out for more of the good stuff. No, silly willy, "the good stuff" is not referring to drugs, but rather, Libby's mad sweet crazy awesome posts. Well that was a lie. Thanks for reading my boring blog! Lata gata...

Woke up too early

It's going to be a cold, rainy day in Grove City. So sad. I guess this weather is evidence of the fact that fall is on its way, and to me that is a bummer.

Right now I'm sitting here, listening to Butterfly Kisses on my headphones. It's kind of a depressing song. I need to stop giving myself 50 minutes to get ready, because I obviously don't need all that time. There seems to be a recent theme in my blogging... It only happens at the strangest hours of the day. :)

Oooo... New song! Nicole C. Mullen's "When I Call on Jesus." Well, I'm gonna pack up my stuff for class. I hope y'all have an amazing day!

Diet Coke with Lime is simply amazing when it's so cold that the top turns slushy. But seriously, who would be stupid enough to drink caffeinated pop at 2:00 in the morning? Well my friends, not all of us are that logical. I guess there's just a lot to think about these days, and what better time to do that than the middle of the night? :)

I guess it's been a while since I last posted. I've been back here at Grove City College for the past week: acquiring a quality education in a thoroughly Christian environment at an affordable cost. I have noticed a change in the social dynamics since coming to GCC for the first time. Freshmen year, the work was so overwhelming and I spent too much time on it. And ever since, the focus has shifted from academics to friendships. The academics are part of being here, but friendships are the what keep me coming back.

It's so nice to return to a place that is familiar and comfortable, a place where you can just pick up where you left off. GCC has become a sort of second home, which is strange to say since in previous years I have struggled so much with homesickness. But I guess that it's different this year... Part of it is probably just getting older and more confident. Part of it is knowing so many people here. Part of it is being loved by friends, and loving them back like they're my own sisters. Part of it is the excitement of a new year and memories to be made.

I love the fact that wherever I go, God is with me. He is so good, and I will never grasp the extent to which that is true. Yet He still hears my little prayers, and He answers them! He rules over all the nations, but He knows how many hairs are on my head. It's like the Nichole Nordeman song, "Oh Great God, be small enough to hear me now" (I think that it's called "Small Enough"). I won't get going on my Nichole schpeal... I'll just say that she is amazing and everyone should listen to her music for the lyrics.

So now that you've had a taste of my disoriented, late-night thinking, it's time for bed. I don't think that the caffeine in my system is gonna be a problem... I'm wiped out. So anywho, this is going to be a very interesting semester. I can't wait to see what God's going to do!!

You Grovers (I hate that term), keep the studying in perspective. I'm sure that I'll be seeing "y'all" around. And the rest of you peeps, come visit me! :)

Wow! I just can't believe that this summer is almost over... It seems like Dad just picked me up from college after my Sensation & Perception final. Yet so much has happened in the past few months...

I've met my Maker in a whole new way, and I've learned a lot about myself. I've reconnected with old friends from high school, and I've had some amazing times with my buds from GCC. I've cried until all the tears were gone. I've laughed so hard that I could no longer breathe. I've gone on road trips with friends; and more surprisingly, I went country line-dancing. (For the record, I still hate country music.) This summer has been a transition into the rest of my life. I still don't know what God has planned for me, but man am I stoked! Life is good, God is good, and our days here are numbered...so live life. Jesus said, "I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." (check out John 10:9-10)

Social Life and a Tangerine

The world must be coming to an end, because Libby has a social life again. Yes, my friends, it's true. After a couple weeks of boringness, the old gang is back in the groove, and I'm lovin' it.

For those of you who haven't heard, I painted my room "tangerine" last week. I really like the change, which is not customary for me. I usually resist change, but who could say no to a radiant orange room? Not me.

This week we have a family living in our basement. They moved to Indiana last summer, and their eldest son stayed at a friend's house for his senior year. Well, they decided to come back for graduation week, so they're down in the basement. It's not much of an imposition, though, and they're nice, so it's cool.

I hope you are enjoying the summer so far!!! Thanks for reading my boring blog!

Home for the summer...

Yeah, so last night on the way home from GCC, we hit a huge thunderstorm. Lots of my stuff (in the back of my Dad's truck) got pretty wet, but nothing important was damaged.

I started work today, but it still seems like I am just home for one of those little 4-day breaks. I guess reality has not yet struck. But I already miss my girls!!! I miss Wheat Thins tag, tons of walks to Wal-Mart and County Market, the plethera of girls' nights, taking over each others' computers and IMing random people, the prank-wars, attacking Andrea, making Amy eat weird things, listening to Jen tell her stories, and knowing that I can talk to my friends anytime I want/need to. But I will NOT go long without seeing "y'all" this summer!

Weird... My mom is in the kitchen singing "You Raise Me Up." I can't escape that Josh Groban dude.

Oh, and for those of you who don't know how to check your grades before they are posted on campusweb, YOU CAN do it. Log in to campus web and go to "My Schedule." Then highlight the word "schedule" in the address bar and type in "grade_report" where the word "schedule" was. You can do that to see your grades as your profs turn them in. I guess it's just a little quark in the system. Check it out.

Well, my Mom and I are going to my brother's baseball game in a few minutes, so I'm gonna split. Let the summer begin! Later.

CHEESE IS SO GROSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. Joe O. and Dave H. - I saw some disturbing pictures! Eww...
Thank God for blogs...they're a marvelous tool for procrastinating!

Study day at Grove City College. For most it translates into some extra time to hit the books, for some it means that they can sleep in one last time before finals start, and for the rest of us study day is an opportunity to mess around with friends for hours on end. Whether or not we wanted to goof off all day, that is what happened. Exploding cookies was my personal favorite moment, but many good times were had.

And the weekend looks promising for some more of that... Without thinking, I told Matt online that Amy and I have asked our friends to duct tape us to something in public, like a flagpole or tree or something. (Well, we didn't exactly ask them...we just said that we wouldn't put up a fight if they did it to us.) Matt then told Joe about this, and they decided that Saturday would be a good time to duct tape us. So yeah, sounds fun, huh? I'll have to remember to wear long sleeves so that my arm hair doesn't get ripped out.

Amy, Andy, and Kristin are all taking their first final at this very moment. Civ Arts is an easy final, so I'm sure they'll be alright. I, however, plan on getting torn apart by my upcoming finals. My lack of motivation to study is not going to help either. Oh well...5 days 'till summer!!!

On that note, I am going to try to get something done in the next few hours. Some of you are already done with finals, some are just finishing them up, and then there's us grovers. (Almost there...) No matter where you are on your finals schedule, have a great day! Thanks for bearing with me and reading my boring blog. :) Peace out.

Andrea and I walked to Walmart this afternoon in order to fully experience that beautiful weather. A little later in the evening, we ended up walking there again with Jen and Amy. So today was the day of Walmart...it was so great! None of us really needed anything. We ended up buying tons of bulk candy (mostly bridge mix and chocolatey stuff)and eating it as we walked.

Now over the last couple years, we've noticed a strange little quark of Grove City... Men really like to cat call. I personally find this repulsive (it almost triggers my gag reflex). When Andy and I went earlier in the day, we only had one person yell at us; but when we brought Amy and Jen along we had a total of 5 honks, 1 whistle, and 2 cat calls. It must be something about those girls that makes hickish men honk, yell, and whistle. :) I guess Amy and Jen are just mullet magnets!!!

So is anyone else struggling to get work done these days? I have TONS of reading to catch up on before Friday, but I seem to have lost all motivation. It's really bad... I've just reached that point in the semester where you stop caring. My brain is on summer break. Oh well. Things always work out somehow, by God's grace.

Today a friend gave me his network name, and I listened to a whole bunch of new, really cool music. I'm stoked, cause now I have a whole bunch of new CDs that I need to buy this summer! YAY! Well, back to that psych assessment reading... :(

"Gratitude" by Nichole Nordeman

Send some rain, would You send some rain?
'Cause the earth is dry and needs to drink again
And the sun is high and we are sinking in the shade
Would You send a cloud, thunder long and loud?
Let the sky grow black and send some mercy down
Surely You can see that we are thirsty and afraid
But maybe not, not today
Maybe You'll provide in other ways
And if that's the case ...

We'll give thanks to You with gratitude
For lessons learned in how to thirst for You
How to bless the very sun that warms our face
If You never send us rain

Daily bread, give us daily bread
Bless our bodies, keep our children fed
Fill our cups, then fill them up again tonight
Wrap us up and warm us through
Tucked away beneath our sturdy roofs
Let us slumber safe from danger's view this time
Or maybe not, not today
Maybe You'll provide in other ways
And if that's the case ...

We'll give thanks to You with gratitude
A lesson learned to hunger after You
That a starry sky offers a better view if no roof is overhead
And if we never taste that bread

Oh, the differences that often are between
Everything we want and what we really need

So grant us peace, Jesus, grant us peace
Move our hearts to hear a single beat
Between alibis and enemies tonight
Or maybe not, not today
Peace might be another world away
And if that's the case ...

We'll give thanks to You with gratitude
For lessons learned in how to trust in You
That we are blessd beyond what we could ever dream
In abundance or in need
And if You never grant us peace ...

But, Jesus, would You please ...

This weekend has been pretty awesome so far. I started it of by turning in my LAST paper of the semester. Then Andrea, Jen, Joe, Matt, John, and I drove to Cleveland for an Indian's game. But first, we stopped at my house to down some pizza. (It was so nice to see my family, even if it was only for a half hour.) When we were done eating, we finished our journey to the jake. It was great...we bought $5 tickets for the worst section in the ballpark, but because pretty much no one was there, we moved down to some great (and very expensive) seats. Way to sneak past the ushers, guys! On the way back to my house, I got us lost several times. Then we hung out for a while, ate some more food, and continued our trek back to Grove City. It was super cool to meet Matt and John for the first time, and to hang out with all those cool people for 11 hours of pure fun! Yeah buddy!!

Shout out to my roommate, who is now "officially" dating a Mr. Joseph Farley. I don't really know him (I've only talked to him once), but from what I hear he is one awesome dude.

It is so weird... Since Easter break, two of my close friends have started dating guys from the ICO's that they went on over break. Both are senior engineers (one is electrical, one is mechanical) from my friends' home states. Coincidence? I think not. Well, actually I do, but whatever. Anyways, I am happy for them! It's just weird because the original group of friends that we started out with last year has dwindled a lot. The girls still get together all the time, but with all these boyfriends in the picture things are different. And sometimes I miss hanging out in that often obnoxiously huge group of 30 kids, going on walks with the whole troup, having intervis from exaclty 7:00 - 12:45 every Friday and Saturday night, getting everyone together the first night that we were back from every break, playing maphia for hours on end, and yes, even eating dinner with a party of 80 gazillion people. Plus, it's really sad that I've lost touch with lots of friends from last year... I guess that can be easily corrected.

Two weeks from tonight I will be sleeping in my own beddy-bye. Yeah buddy! I'm so pumped for summer. Ok, that's enough for tonight - time to get back to the (stupid waste-of-time) Research Methods lab write-up.

Song of the day: "Gratitude" - Nichole Nordeman
On a wet, dreary day like today...

I hate feeling inferior, out of place, and sub-par...

When others seem to have it all together, and I find nothing good within myself.
When I don't get their jokes, and they only laugh at mine out of politeness.
When I try to join in a conversation, and they don't make room for me.
When it feels like my Creator must have messed up while forming me.

I love being accepted for who I am, without feeling that I have to hold something back...

There is a handful of people with whom I can disclose my deepest thoughts, fears, and insecurities.
*But there is One who knows me inside and out; He sees each tear that falls. He will use me, even though I am unskilled and unworthy. Like Moses, I have told God that I cannot be used, and He has said, "now go; I will help you to speak and teach you what to say."

A glimpse of God' holiness puts things in perspective...

Why are you reading this blog? Certainly not because it's entertaining. Hmm... Maybe it's because you want to better understand the inner-workings of my strange little mind, or maybe you're just bored (probably the case). For those of you who care, here's the story of a scarring event from my childhood that might provide some insight into my feelings about roosters, sharp objects, and "Saved by the Bell":

When I was 10 years old and my family was winding down our trip to Belize for the winter, some of our local friends decided to make us a special meal. Note that this family was crazy-poor, like probably poorer than anyone in this country. But they are so awesome and so generous with the little that they do have. Anywho, the grandmother of this family told my mom that she would be fixing a special meal for our family before we left. The next day, she stopped by and asked if any of us would like to come watch as they slaughtered the rooster. (Let me interject at this point that my mom loves roosters. This bird woke her up every morning, since the family lived pretty close to us. So yeah, she was a little sad.) So, as the leader of my two younger brothers, I went and they followed. Basically, in Belize they slaughter their home-grown poultry by tying the bird's neck to a log. Then they swing away with the machete. The blood sprays like 10 feet in every direction, but the action is not over there... You've heard the phrase "running around like a chicken with its head cut off." It speaks the truth. After being beheaded, this crazy rooster decided to sprint around the yard. I don't remember any more, except running away from the spraying bird body. Lesson of the day: do not stand within 10 feet of a bird during or after its old-school-style execution. If you do, your shirt WILL be bloody.

So now you understand part of why I am such a deranged person. (Here you are supposed to say, "No Libby! You're not deranged, you're just SPECIAL." That's what my mommy says anyway.)

Right now I'm listening to the new FIF cd. Well, it's not really NEW if you bought "The End is Near" during a summer festival or their final tour. But it is really sweet, so make sure and get one for yourself!

Yeah, things have changed a little since I last wrote...

The semester is coming to a close; Joel and I broke up about a month ago; I think God may be calling me into missions after college, although I am praying for affirmation if that's where He wants me; and my friends from home and I are going on a ROAD TRIP this summer.

Easter break was SO awesome! The highlight was when my brother Brian and I road tripped it to Wheaton College to visit my best friend from high school. It was so much fun to spend lots of time with Brian, hang out with the Abby-meister, AND get to see the renouned Wheaton College (for the first time) all in three amazing days!

I can't believe that this semester is almost done! It makes me want to stop time for a while, cause it's starting to go by freakishly fast. Don't get me wrong, summer is my favorite time of the year, but before we know it we're going to be fully-responsible, self-dependent, boring adults. Man, I hope that doesn't happen to me (the "boring adult" part, that is). No 9-to-5 job for Libby! No sirree bob!! (Yes Bob, I am talking to you. Do I even know a Bob?)

But yeah, I am planning on studying abroad in Greece for the second semester of next year. So after this semester is done, I like to think that I am more than halfway finished. Not that I don't like Grove City College (that is another issue), but I just try to see it like it is. And let's face it...studying abroad is easy. You go on lots of little trips, and they try to make it easy for you so that you can have a "culturally enriching experience." And that's exactly what I'm planning on. I'm sure it'll be really rough to adjust and be in a very secular environment, but I know that I won't regret it. Unless I die, but then I won't regret it either, cause I'll be with Jesus, which I am looking forward to, to say the very least. Yeah, heaven is going to be so awesome. Just worshipping God perfectly, as we were meant to. But until then we have a mission here on earth, don't we? Speaking of which, I have been praying for God to provide another Christian while I am studying abroad in Greece. I'd really appreciate it if you would pray for that too. Thanks! :)

Well, I should go to IV now, since it starts in 5 mins. It's been really fun writing. I'll have to do it more often! Later.

Sorry it's been so long since I last wrote. This semester is flying by, but it's been so great! Some highlights have been:

~My family coming to visit for my birthday
~Another semester with Joel
~The Valentine's Day semi-formal swing dance!!
~Fun times on the hall

Hopefully soon I can add "spring" to that list of highlights... Needless to say, winter is not my favorite season. Sun and warm weather is where it's at.

I've learned a very valuable lesson today: don't let Amy (a.k.a. Phil Abong) give you a "tatoo" with Sharpie permanent markers. They weren't joking when they decided to name them "permanent" markers. Anyways...I'm out.

Hey everybody!

Sorry it's been so long. I'm on vacation now, at a cyber cafe with my mom, so I can't write long. I hope you're all enjoying your breaks and getting pumped for next semester. It'll be sweet to see y'all again.

So what kind of crazy people live in that mad cow disease state anyways? JK roommate. Stay warm guys!! :)

p.s. I'll be back on the 6th, so leave one on my tagboard.
